if you're using beaker sessions:

    session.invalidate() leaves the cookie, but kills the server side
data associated with it.
    session.kill() kills the cookie, but a new session/session_id/
cookie is created.

i'm not sure what the other session backings do.

fwiw, I was just as confused as you with the various pyramid auth
mechanisms.  i also realized that they would take quite a bit of
integration work ( to handle caching, etc ) -- so i just wrote my own
auth system.  i use some custom decorators :

@require_logged_in( require_https=True,
require_permissions=[list,of], etc )
@require_logged_out()

and just bypass all the pyramid auth.
